week of got the midterm elections next year and then in 2015 we'll have the presidential election starting. so it looks good, but i just don't trust the republicans on this. i'm sorry. and as far as the cuts that they want to do, they really need to start with the corporate welfare, save a lot of those loopholes, take away from the penkses and everything. i don't think that's right. but this any case, i wanted to say that it looks good but beware because we do have two elections coming up pretty soon and in 2014 and 2015. that's all i have to say. >> thanks for your call. color he is is our last caller -- coloress is our last caller from -- doris is our last caller from milwaukee, wisconsin. >> hi, how are you doing, dear? >> good. go ahead. >> my thing is about that cut. they always are cutting from fema who really need -- from people who really need. this the people who are retiring from the army and navy and stuff. they shouldn't even go there with that. what they should do, my thing is congress, they should put their budgets down and the republicans, they shut cut their pay down. that

i've been here now, like i said, for just over a year after being elected. and my constituents back home in nevada asked ask me often what is it like to be a member of congress? do you feel good about what it is you're able to accomplish. and you know it is an honor. it's a great honor to serve the people of nevada's fourth congressional district here, in the people's house, the house of representatives, and it's a great honor and i'm proud to be a member of the congressional black caucus which has colleagues who are some of the most committed proponents of progressive social and progressive economic justice legislation that comes before this congress. but as honorable as this position is, as proud of a moment that it is for me personally, when i hear the statist exs that were read by our chairwoman, chair fudge that less than 50 bills that have been passed by congress have become law, that's rather frustrating. and it's frustrating to the american public. prior to coming to congress, i served in the state legislature in nevada. we only meet every other year
